Stun Gun Kim's Injury

KZ and I went to the hospital yesterday to meet with Stun Gun's team and heard the whole story. The injury actually occurred about 30 seconds into the fight when the fighters were on the opposite side (from where the fight ended) of the octagon. Maia had one of Stun Gun's legs, which is a position that he actually likes.

As they were tied up, somehow Stun Gun got a muscle spasm in his side. He told his corner that something was wrong.

Kim defended Maia's takedown attempts for a while, but by the time they got to the other side of the Octagon, he was in too much pain.

The position in which the injury happened is the kind that happens in training all the time, but for some reason it caused a severe muscle spasm this particular time. It truly was a freak accident.

It's a terrible way to lose a fight and Stun Gun is really bummed out about it. I'm sure he'll be back and going strong soon enough, though!

I occasionally get severe spasms in my calves and it's fucking excruciating. it only happens when i'm asleep though after really wrecking my legs during the day overdoing a workout or cardio. worst pain i've ever imagined. can't imagine that happening in other muscles. always wakes me up screaming, and takes hours for relief/muscle relaxation.

I believe more potassium when you rehydrate post-workout will help with that.
